Start the host.

Execute the mount command to make sure that the SCSI device is

mounted.
The following shows an execution example for when GRUB is used as the

boot loader:

# mount

/dev/sda2 on / type ext2 (rw)

/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)

/dev/sda4 on /tmp type ext2 (rw)

/dev/sda5 on /var type ext2 (rw)

/dev/sda6 on /usr type ext2 (rw)

none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)

Check the underlined section.

If Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10, or SUSE

LINUX Enterprise Server 11 is used, make sure that the SCSI device is

allocated to the swap partition.
Make sure that the SCSI device name is displayed in the Filename

column of the /proc/swaps file.

Perform an upgrade installation of HDLM.
To perform an upgrade installation of HDLM, see

HDLM device. You will also need to perform step 13 if you are only

restarting the host. Note that the procedure differs depending on whether

the host is restarted after installation.

Execute the dlmcfgmgr utility with the -v parameter specified to check

the correspondence between the SCSI device and the HDLM device.

# dlmcfgmgr -v

KAPL10302-I /sbin/dlmcfgmgr completed normally.

The HDevName column indicates the HDLM device, and the Device column

indicates SCSI device.

Create an initial RAM disk image file for HDLM.
From the following, perform the procedure that corresponds to the host

OS.

For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6:

Change hdlm_dracut=n defined in the /etc/opt/
DynamicLinkManager/hdlm.conf file to hdlm_dracut=y.

Execute the dracut command.
If the initial RAM disk image file to be created already exists,

specify the -f parameter to overwrite the file.
The following shows an example of executing the command:
